Chapter One
My name was Ramone Van Ikren II.I was a wealthy child living in Barcelona, Spain.My mother was Queen Anna, birthed from my grandparents in Namibia, Africa.She was one of the lucky few who had escaped slavery.King Ramone Van Ikren I, my father, fell in love with dear Anna the first time she stumbled upon his parents' Kingdom.I can't blame him, she's beautiful.The way her smooth chocolate mocha skin shone in the light, the way her unusual pale blue eyes glittered with happiness and love.Everything screamed wonderful, alluring, unique.
That makes me an odd mix, hmm?
I look more like my father's parents than either my sire or dam.
My skin was a rich deep caramel shade.I had long silky black hair which was kept in a loose thong ponytail most of the time.
I was a lanky child, tall and skinny.I wore appealing designer clothes imported from Paris, France.
We had a large castle-like thing, some people in this age would call it a mansion.
It had four wings, North, South, East, and West.My bedroom was in the South wing, at the back of the house.
I had my own tower, while my sisters had to pair up in twos.The towers were built into the house for us.
My tower had lots of windows, which I'm fond of, I've always liked the natural light of the sun.
I had a secret passage to my tower, my father had thought that it would be nice to have some spice in my life.
The small door was 'hidden' behind an empty chest.Once you were in it was dark, so you had to climb a short ways to get to the first platform.Once you were on the platform, you pulled two thick ropes which would pull you up.When you were at the top, another door had to be opened.
